His “love” is in the acceptance of Jesus as the Messiah of Israel of Israel (that’s the Son of God and the one sent for the salvation of all who accept).

His “wrath” is In the rejection of Jesus as the Messiah of Israel, resulting in eternal damnation for eternity in the lake of fire.

“You” (or anyone else) can have his love or his wrath ... “you pick” ...

And what is "acceptance," and what is "rejection" of Jesus - hmmm?

Something YOU would recognize in another? That most intimate of all possible relationships, that trust and love literally from the Divine, and you would judge its merits? You would say - acceptable in this one, unacceptable in that one? Adequate here, inadequate there?

Who has listened to your lip-licking descriptions of hell and turned away from Jesus in horror, or despair? Who, oh judger of souls? Because Jesus knew about people like you. He said, "if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea."

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread, oh judger of souls.

Beware.

The Bible can solve your problem of not being aware of “what” it is to be saved. There are many who are unaware ...

1 Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received and in which you stand,

2 by which also you are saved, if you hold fast that word which I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.

3 For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures,

4 and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day according to the Scriptures,

5 and that He was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve.

6 After that He was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

7 After that He was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

8 Then last of all He was seen by me also, as by one born out of due time.

1 Corinthians 15:1-8

And Paul makes it even more simple for you. It’s not difficult!

To be SAVED is “... that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.”

Romans 10:9-10

That is all it takes!
